Vendor Spotlight - The Noah Liff Opera Center
If you don't know about this next venue, you should! Today we are very happy to shine our "vendor spotlight" on The Noah Liff Opera Center. Noah Liff is a chic and sleek venue close to downtown Nashville that has a variety of spaces and just about everything you need to host your event. The Nashville Wedding Planner's Group held one of our meetings at Noah Liff last year in the "Patron Room" and got to see first hand, what a unique space it is! Here's what Sarah Willard, the Facilities and Event Manager, {and one of our lovely members!} had to say:
Tell us about your venue
The Liff Center is one of Nashville’s newest and most elegant venues. Designed by renowned architect Earl Swensson and Earl Swensson Associates, the sleek, contemporary 26,000-sq-foot venue offers a variety of options for private events to host guests from 20 to 299!
What makes your venue different from other venues?
We are one of only 3-5 truly contemporary venues in Nashville. The Liff Center was built with events in mind, so it is perfectly suited for ceremonies, cocktail parties and receptions! Rentals include a full 12 hours! All packages are completely inclusive. There are no bar fees, service charges or tax. The venue comes with all your tables, 2 choices of chairs, 54 choices in floor length linens, basic lighting and much more!
What is the history of your venue?
The Noah Liff Opera Center was designed and built for the Nashville Opera and opened in May 2009. We host between 40 and 50 private events per year and that continues to increase! The Nashville Opera has their full stage rehearsals here approximately 3 months each year before moving to TPAC for the actual production.
What are some of your wedding and reception options?
We have packages built with brides in mind! You can host a wedding ceremony and reception - plus cocktails! - for 50 - 280 guests.
Does your venue require use of your preferred vendors, or are brides free to bring their own?
We have a list of 15 caterers to choose from, brides are welcome to bring in their own vendors in any other category!
In your opinion which event (or type of event) has most creatively taken advantage of your venue, and what made the event a success?
We have had everything from local theatre productions to bar/bat mitzvahs and grand birthday celebrations to weddings and corporate luncheons to fashion shows! The Liff Center is truly a chameleon for most any event. Each event is different and I love seeing the designs for each one. We have had everything from full draping (ceiling and top to bottom) and have also had minimal decor. The effect is stunning, each time. It's hard to choose just one event!
